This article investigates the problem of neural network (NN)-based adaptive backstepping control design for stochastic nonlinear systems with unmodeled dynamics in finite-time prescribed performance. NNs are used to study the uncertain control plants, and the problem of unmodeled dynamics is tackled by the combination of the changing supply function and the dynamical signal function methods. The outstanding contribution of this article is that based on the finite-time performance function (FTPF), a modified finite-time adaptive NN control design strategy is proposed, which makes the controller design simpler. Eventually, by using the Itô's differential lemma, the backstepping recursive design technique, and the FTPFs, a novel adaptive prescribed performance tracking control scheme is presented, which can guarantee that all the variables in the control system are bounded in probability, and the tracking error can converge to a specified performance range in the finite time. Finally, both numerical simulation and applied simulation examples are provided to verify the effectiveness and applicability of the proposed method.
